Key Lime Pie- Back to School time!!!!! Recipe



It's back to school time!!!!  Here I am today with a delicious mouth watering recipe of lime Pie. My daughter who is a big fan of limes and lemon always asks for a key lime pie whenever we go to eat out. For the summer vacations, she was asking me to make one and the time went by doing a lot of things other than this Lime Pie.



On the first day of school, I want to surprise her and so I made this easy, simple pie which can be done within no time. The best key lime pie ever. A bit tart, a bit sweet and an incredibly easy dish which will be your family's favorite.




The buttery graham cracker crumbs is beautifully baked into a crust and filled to the brim with an incredibly creamy filling of a combination of yolks, condensed milk, lime juice and lime zest, that is so quick to make.


A perfect balance of tart and sweet will make this pie an incredible dessert to serve for any occasion. The only hard work involved in making this dish is to squeeze the lime but that's worth. The store bought lime juice, will make the pie loose it's authenticity. Hope you all might like this. Please try this recipe and let me know how it turned out.

  4. Meanwhile whisk together egg yolks, condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest in a medium bowl.

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
